No formal schools were set up so illiteracy was normal. Most of the people in this county were descended from other countries: "Foreign Born", there were 2 from NY, 2 from CN, 2 from AL, 11 from SC, 3 from VA, 2 from Canada, 2 from Nova Scotia and 2 from England. Of the 157 Scotland, of this number on 27 were born before the Revolution. Most came after 1785. The rest were either, English, Ulster or Scot. A Geman mixture was common. The Honsaker's, Ritter's, & Brewer's migrated together from PA. There were 11 physicians and 3 lawyers in the county in 1850. There were 5 Methodist minister's, 2 Baptist and four Presbyterians, the latter being entered on the scroll as O. S. P.; that is to say, Old School Presbyterian ministers.
